In 2014, our small but powerful team launched our first public safety product, the Bryx 911 mobile application.

While America laughed, we cringed. We knew we needed to jump on this... there was no reason that any fire department should be operating like that.
At the time, Detroit was facing bankruptcy and preparing for the infamously known Devil’s Night—a night of widespread arson throughout Detroit. In response to a viral video, (our founder and CEO) Dave reached out to the city and provided them with the Bryx 911 free mobile application, and eventually, they became the first of many customers to use the Bryx Station alerting system.
